BHR 360: highlights from 2017, and what to watch out for in 2018

Welcome to the first edition of BHR 360, our bi-annual Business and Human Rights newsletter. Over the past year the international community has focused its attention on the third pillar of the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights – "Access to Effective Remedy". This was the central theme of the 2017 UN Forum on Business and Human Rights and the subject of several initiatives among states, business and civil society.

In this edition of BHR 360, we look at five key developments from the past year to keep monitoring in 2018, which will affect how people and communities adversely affected by business activities may seek to access remedy in the future.
